AI Weekly Report (2025-03-17 ~ 2025-03-24)
本周概览
This week’s AI landscape featured major LLM advancements, corporate strategy shifts, and heated legal/ethical debates. Key highlights include Claude adding web search capabilities, Google’s Gemma 3 release (runnable on a single GPU), and a US appeals court ruling AI-generated art ineligible for copyright. Corporate moves like Amazon ending local Alexa processing and Apple restructuring AI teams to revamp Siri dominated headlines, while FOSS communities raised alarms about AI companies exploiting open-source infrastructure. Agentic systems and local AI deployment also gained momentum, with tools enabling autonomous coding agents and consumer-grade LLM inference.
